Complete DNA Profile Comparison Test
The Complete DNA Profile Comparison Test is our most comprehensive laboratory testing service for clients who want to determine whether semen is present on a submitted item and, when possible, compare any recovered DNA profile to a known reference sample.
This service combines semen detection, DNA extraction, DNA profile generation, and DNA profile comparison into one complete forensic DNA analysis.
If sufficient human DNA is successfully recovered, our laboratory will generate a DNA profile and compare it to the provided reference sample, delivering clear, confidential, and easy-to-understand results.
What Is a Complete DNA Profile Comparison Test?
The Complete DNA Profile Comparison Test combines multiple laboratory services into one comprehensive analysis, providing more information than semen detection or DNA profile comparison alone.
This service includes:
Detection of semen using a confirmatory semen detection test
DNA extraction from the submitted item
DNA profile generation (when sufficient DNA is recovered)
Comparison of the recovered DNA profile to one known reference sample
Testing is performed by our accredited laboratory using validated forensic DNA analysis methods.
What Can This Test Tell You?
The Complete DNA Profile Comparison Test can help determine:
Whether semen is present on the submitted item
Whether a usable human DNA profile can be recovered
Whether the recovered DNA profile matches the provided reference sample
Whether the recovered DNA profile does not match the provided reference sample
Whether one or multiple DNA profiles are present within the submitted sample
Please note that successful DNA recovery depends on the quality, quantity, and condition of the submitted sample.
